  1. Cloud Applications A cloud app is the evolved web app. It's equally used to access online services over the Internet like web apps but not always exclusively dependent on web browsers to work. It's possible for a customizable, multi-tenancy cloud app to be solely(exclusively) available over the web browser from service providers, but quite often the web-interface is used as alternative access methods to the custom built cloud app for online services.

  2. Cloud Applications Cloud apps are usually characterized by advanced features such as: Data is stored in a cloud / cloud-like infrastructure Data can be cached locally for full-offline mode Support for different user requirements, e.g., data backup cloud app with different features such as data compression, security, backup schedule Can be used from web browser and/or custom built apps installed on Internet connected devices such as desktops, mobile phones Can be used to access a wider range of services such as on-demand computing cycle, storage, application development platforms

  4. Cloud Applications Examples of cloud apps Some common examples include Mozy, Evernote, Sugar Sync, Salesforce, Dropbox, NetSuite, and Zoho.com. Other qualifying examples such as web email (Google, Yahoo, Microsoft Hotmail, etc.) may not be so obvious, but they depend on cloud technology and are available off-line if consumers so choose to have them configured as such. There are numerous websites where you can find useful information on cloud apps. www.getapp.com to be particularly informative. It includes cloud app reviews and ratings to evaluate the apps.

  5. Web Applications Web apps Web apps on the other hand are almost exclusively designed to be used from a web browser. A combination of server-side script (ASP, PHP etc) and client-side script (HTML, JavaScript, Adobe Flash) are commonly used to develop the web application. The web browser (thin client) relies on the web server components installed on backend infrastructure systems for the heavy lifting in providing its core functional web services. The obvious benefit that this computing model is that it is accessible from anywhere via the web browser. Cloud apps can also be accessed this way.
